Torque Limiter
Refined by Tsubakimoto in Japan for over 40 years, the Torque Limiter is a simple and inexpensive mechanical device that, true to its name, limits damage to equipment when an unexpected increase in torque occurs because of a jam or overload. Easy to install, the Torque Limiter attaches to a shaft and holds the drive or driven sprocket, gear, or sheave. A frictional system, the Torque Limiter reacts instantly when there is a jam by slipping and absorbing the brunt of the force, preventing the increased power from damaging your equipment.
Advantages over other devices:
Competitively priced No resetting is required Adaptable to thousands of types of equipment configurations Can be used alone or in conjunction with other process controls.

Environmentally safe, Tsubaki Torque Limiter contains no asbestos and no lead.
Not all Torque Limiters are created equally.
Tsubaki has developed a superior Torque Limiter that allows for more precise adjustments than other products of the same name. We accomplish this by using a finer-pitch thread on the adjustment bolts enabling accurate setting of the slip-point – no longer settle for just a ballpark value. Tsubaki Torque Limiters use specially-formulated friction materials to extend time between replacement and improve repeatability of the slip-point. Tsubaki Torque Limiters provide long life, consistent performance, and the best value over years of operation.
Torque Limiter can be used with a sprocket, sheave, or gear.
Tsubaki Torque Limiter’s finer adjustment screw pitch means more precision.
Excellent for hard work and heavy use.
